Important cabinet Meeting.

Washington Special; Cabinet met on the
Sth, and remained in session over three
hours. The meeting was devoted almost
entirely to the consideration OF interna.
tional questions, the most important re.
lating to the Canadian fisheries, the policy
OF Great Britain in regard to the island Of
Hayti, and the seal fisheries OF Alaska.
In regard to the fisheries question it ia
understood that information has been re.
ceiyed to the effect that England ~sustains
the position tsken by Tire Canadian nh,
thorities and is in no wi6Ldis;ossd Co make
concessions requested by this government.
This question was considered by the cab
met with the view to The advis.
ability Of suitable action by the
President under the provisions oil
Siic IetaiiFtiory aet. the alleged de-
mand OF Great Britain for the possession
Of the Tortugas Islands, on the payment
by the Haytien government OF $1,000, 900
in settlement Of the old claims WAS con.
sidered at some length. The United States
have great interests in Hayti, commercial
and otherwise, and are deeply concerned in
its welfare and prosperity. A correspond.
ence will be opened wftA Great Britain on
this subject.

KS
Competitive examinations are on
their trial in this country and the ap-
parent results do not always favor
them; but wherever an accurate rec
ord extending over q number Of years
can be secured the balance generally
in their favor. At West Point, in the
ten years 1882, 900 appointees
passed the entrance examination OF
whom 432 were appointed after q
competitive examination and SGT for
the various forms OF favoritism which
influence congressman and the presi-
dent in giving this appointment. OF
the feEmer e2 per cent graduated,
and Of the latter As per cent, SO that
the proportion Of those passing vas
nearly one-half larger in the former
case. The test counts for more when
it is remembered that the examine
tions at West Point are more severe
than in any other institution in the
co~untry,and the training and require
ments combine q demand for physical
development and ability as well az
foFintellectual progress.

According to the report to the
stockholders in the Eastern railroad,
the awful casualty which occurred on
It's line, at Revere, Mass, several years
ago, resulted in a loss to the corpo-
ration of $4,000 in round numbers,
including personal damages, the de-
struction Of ears and engines and the
cost Of ali repiacements.' These figures
naturally attracted the serious atten-
tion Of those interested in, the net f.
nancial results OF the company's bust
ness, and it is noticeable that the line
has been much freer from such expen-
sive episodes ever since. They con-
eigaed that it is much cheaper to pre-.
vent accidents by better equipment.
increased facilities and greater vigi-
lance on the part o operatives thanto
settle the money damages of a single
calamity, which would swallow up the
distributive profits for a year or
more.

1t appears that Germany, Austria
Russia, England, and some other
countries are rapidly extending their
canal systems, Notwithstanding the
pre-eminence OF the present period as
a railroad era, and that, in respect
to the extent of freight or commercial
water routes, America is relatively
far behind Europe. Thus, France is
at present engaged on four great wa
ter-ways, for which a sum equal to
5000, oG0, 900 has been appropriated,
and which will, in fact, cost a much
larger sum; Germany and Russia are
constructing a canal from the Baltic
to the North Sea; England is making
canals at immense cost, from London
to Liverpool and Bristol, and from
Manchester to Liverpool; while Can,
ada is spending a million dollars to
improve the Welland Canal.

STATE POLITICAL GOSSIP.
That Anybody May Hear Almost Any
where In n. c.

In the booming, industrial counties
up west, SO rdmor says, there is q tide
rising which may bear Col. Armfeld
to the governorship, especially so,
since brother Buck Kitchen of the
way down-east Scotland Neck Demo
crat has added his influence.
That report about combination
having been formed for nominating
Hon. Geo. Davis for Governor is one
of the things to laugh over on this
Thanksgiving Day. Mr.. Davis is a
good man and a true one, but the
SENTINEL doesn't believe his friends
have taken any unfair advantage of
the other candidates, in fact it doubts
very much whether Mr.. Davis is to
be classed as candidate yet.
1t has been said on the streets of
Winston that the Republicans up this
way are all counting on John Nichols,
of Observation-Disclosures to
whoop loud as the Big Medicine
Man of the Republican camp
next year.
"Why don't you boom Armfield for
Governor ?" was asked of the editor
of the SENTINEL a few days ago.
Right here the SENTINEL wants to
say that it hasn't, as yet, any candi-
date. Whomsoever the convention
dominates is the SENTINEL's candidate
| Crowded of course he is Eli honest
man-and Democratic candidates for
Governor always have been within
our memory and him we expect to
support.

Greensboro the other day Chow they

ly overheard several politicians and a
newspaper man hobnobbing. Slowly

need it sadly. Were North Carolina
under Republican rule we would fear
for her exchequer. Fortunately for
